3D Creation of Celing, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT

Challenge-4

1) Based on the project saved from Week 3, proceed from the First Floor Level. Model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level

Aim:

To model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level.

Procedure:

• First, we open the Revit software, and select the ceiling option from the architecture toolbar.

• After selecting the ceiling option, then select each room one by one.
• Then the ceiling will be created, as shown in the below figure.
• Here we can the ceiling in the three-dimensional view as shown in the below figure.

Result:

The ceiling has been modeled successfully from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level.

2) Model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling. Using the adjustment toolbars appearing on-screen adjust the roof slope to 10 degrees

Aim:

To model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling.

Procedure:

Open the architecture toolbar, and select the Roof by Footprint option as shown in the below figure.

Next we select the roof and adjust the roof to 10 degrees by selecting it, as shown in the figure.

The roof has been created, as shown below.

Result:

The roof has been created successfully to the model in the Revit in detailed manner.

3) Using the file saved from weeks 2 to 4, create plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components. Separate them to
architecture and structural plans

• Architecture plan must have walls, floors, and all the components placed within the building
  b. Structure plan must have details of only walls, floors, and columns

Aim:

To create plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components.

And to Separate them to architecture and structural plans.

Procedure:

First we draw the architectural plans of first floor and second floor as shown below.

Next we draw the structural plans of the first floor and second floor as shown below.

Result:

Created plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components.

And separated them to architecture and structural plans.

4) Using annotate toolbar add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file

1. The architecture plan dimensions include details on where the components are placed within the buildings with relation to grids. Overall dimensions are sufficient for architecture plans
2. The Structure plan dimensions must include details on the position of all the walls and interior walls with reference to grids. Locate all the framing components of the building with reference to a fixed point using Structural plans

Aim:

To add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file.

Procedure:

Here we drawn the longitudinal and transverse grids to the architectural floor plans as shown below.

And add the dimensions to the architectural plans as shown below

Next we draw the longitudinal and transverse grids to the Structural floor plans as shown below.

And add the dimensions to the Structural plans as shown below.

Result:

The dimensions are added to the structural floor plans and the architectural floor plans.

And the longitudinal and transverse grids are also created in the project file.

5) Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views

Aim:

To create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views.

Procedure:

First we click on the sheet option from the view toolbar, as shown below.

After clicking the sheet, Thhe new tab will be visible on the screen.

In that new tab we select the A1 metric, then the sheet template will be displayed.

In the sheet template we insert the first floor plan and second floor plan separately as shown below.

Next edit the Project name and the sheet number as shown in the below figures.

Result:

Created a sheet template from the view tab and adjusted the parameters on the sheet for adding appropriate views.

6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West

Aim:

To create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West using the elevation tab.

Procedure:

First we click on the elevation option from the view toolbar, as shown below.

Next the elevation from the east will be visible, as shown below.

Next the elevation from the south will be visible on the screen, as shown below.

Next the elevation from the North will be visible on the screen, as shown below.

Next the elevation from the West will be visible on the screen, as shown below.

Result:

As per elevation tool used and Created four side elevation

7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction

Aim:

To produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction.

Procedure:

First we click on the section option from the view toolbar, as shown below.

Next we produce the section view of the bed room as shown in the below figure.

Next we produce the section view of the Toilet room as shown in the below figure.

Next we produce the section view of the kitchen room as shown in the below figure.

Result:

The section tool effectively used to cut the sections

8) Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser

Aim:

To classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser.

Procedure:

First we open the project browser, the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views are visible in that project browser as shown below.

Next we insert these plans one by one in the sheets separately

First we insert the front elevation in the sheet template, as shown in the below figure.

Next we insert the ground floor plan in the sheet template, as shown in the below figure.

Next we insert the first floor plan in the sheet template, as shown in the below figure.

Next we insert the section-1 in the sheet template, as shown in the below figure.

Result:

Views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views are classified to Design category using Properties browser.

9) Using the sheet template produced create multiple sheets as follows
a. A 101- Ground Floor Architecture Plan
b. A 102- First Floor Architecture Plan
c. A 103- Roof Plan
d. S 101- Ground Floor Structural Plan
e. S 102- First Floor Structural Plan
f. S 103- Roof Framing Plan
g. A-201- North-South Elevations
h. A-202- East-West Elevations

Add additional sheets based on the sections created in your Revit file

Aim:

To create the multiple sheets and produce the drawings in the sheets, from the given drawing list.
